Hello vikings and Rocky-fans!
It’s April, and you might have noticed that we were a bit mischievous earlier this month… For clarity, we did a repost of our old April Fools jokes, and as funny as these videos may be they will remain only jokes. But the video that was brand new – the trailer for Rocky the Pet Rock – was no joke at all! Rocky is very much a real thing in the game, though we won’t go into detail about how to make your Rocky happy…
If you love Rocky, you will probably also love the Rocky plushie! The Makeship campaign to get your very own Rocky is live right now, and this will be your only chance to get one, so don’t miss it!
Speaking of plushies, it’s time to announce the winners of our Favour of Freya screenshot competition! The winners will each get a jumbo neck plushie, to give them emotional support in their continued virtual photography. The Scenic category we would like to award to BarefootCookie for this shot of a Charred warrior gazing out over the Ashlands. Wow!
And the Action category we would like to award to Thaddeus for capturing this moment during a battle with Lord Reto. Incredible! Thank you everyone who submitted a screenshot for the competition, it’s been so much fun to get a glimpse into your very own Valheim adventures!
Before we wrap up we have another part of the Voyage of Hervor Bloodtooth for you! As she continues to walk deeper into the snowy woods, it appears she’s not quite as alone as she first thought…
Of course we will also give you a screenshot of that mysterious building she encountered there at the end. What do you think it is, and who do you think built it?
Build of the Month
And finally, time to highlight a building from the community! This month it was Stefonishin who caught our attention with this waterfront house. Well done!
If you want your creation to be featured in this section, use the hashtag #ValheimBotM on social media. Please also send us a DM with a link to your post, to make sure that we see it. You can view previous builds in this thread on Steam.
Rock on!
